Banjo tuition WILL be available at Lisburn on Saturday

Thanks to Dangem Banjos for a news flash to supplement their notice about this month's Bluegrass Get-Together at Lisburn tomorrow (Sat. 28 Nov.) - banjo lessons for beginners will be available, as Tony Curran has offered to stand in for Howard Walker.

Anyone who saw the Down and Out Bluegrass Band in action during the summer and autumn of 2013 will recall that Tony - a longstanding stalwart of the Ulster bluegrass scene - was doing an excellent job of picking banjo for the band while Howard was recovering from a wrist injury. Banjo beginners will be in safe hands with Tony at Lisburn.
